Davis said the protests would continue, &ldquo;Until the Mayor gets serious about campaigning for new revenue.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--> Newsom&rsquo;s budget proposal includes over $125 million in cuts to health and human services while other City departments, including public safety, have been largely spared.<\/p>\n<p>Some progress has been made to rectify the imbalance following ongoing negotiations Monday between the controller&rsquo;s office, the mayor&rsquo;s office and the Board of Supervisors. Budget Chair John Avalos indicated $20.1 million had been identified for possible restoration to health and human services while signaling that the mayor&rsquo;s office is supportive of ballot revenue measures that specifically raise revenues for the cuts Newsom has proposed.<\/p>\n<p>Avalos said the City is looking to raise at least $50 million in revenue on the November ballot to help close an unprecedented $576 million budget shortfall.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\u00c2\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4385_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nBrother Jonathan Hicks, from the Society of St. Francis Episcopal,<br \/>\nconsoles Sarah Benton who fears she will be made homeless<br \/>\nfollowing Newsom&#8217;s cuts.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4416_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><br \/>\nProtestors perform a die-in outside Room 200, the mayor&#8217;s office.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4421_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4491_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4443_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"328\" \/><br \/>\nAnd on the rotunda.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4448_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4465_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"328\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4472_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4481_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2009\/budget_protest_090701\/_w2w4476_std.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protestors performed a die-in outside San Francisco City Hall earlier today as part of an ongoing series of protests to draw attention to Mayor Gavin Newsom&#8217;s proposed budget cuts.
